Wiping your ass with silk is still significantly more friction than water

Save up. Save save save.

Moving is expensive, and any new job is risky to start. The places you’re looking at are expensive because most sane people want to live there.

If you can find a remote job, start there: once you’re a remote worker, you can establish yourself at the job before you move.

It sequesters the carbon while it’s alive, but you’d need to bury the plant deep underground to remove it from the equation
